    “The Guilt Trip” Movie Review

    (Fluffy Fun) – – Seth Rogan (as Andrew Brewster) is a highly educated organic chemist who invented a safe, sustainable, liquid cleaner that cleans better than any existing product.  He is actively promoting the product to some of the biggest stores without success. His overly technical pitch is boring…zzzzzz. Planning a cross-country trip to pitch…

    “Les Miserables” Movie Review

    – – Anne Hathaway’s solo that is heard (and seen briefly) in the trailer above is simply…BREATHTAKING.   Absolutely BREATHTAKING.  I was in tears, not from the sadness of the song, but, by the stunning performance of a truly talented actress…one that should get her an Oscar. “Les Miserables” is unique, Broadway worthy, movie entertainment.…

  • “The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey” Movie Review

     (Instant Classic) – – “The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey” is a stupendous movie.  An instant classic that is visually spectacular and interesting enough that the 170 minutes felt like 30, it was over just as it was getting interesting.  🙂 Director Peter Jackson takes a few liberties with the book ostensibly to set up the “Lord…

  • “Playing for Keeps” Movie Review

    “Playing for Keeps” Movie Review

     (Brainless predictable fun, Judy Greer) – – The biggest (very pleasant) surprise for me was that Judy Greer was in this move!  🙂 Gerard Butler (George) is a former professional soccer player finding life difficult after retirement.  With no job, and divorced from Jessica Biel (as Stacie), he moves to Virginia to be close to…
